The 7.3.5 PTR has major changes to the leveling experience. Blizzard is looking for players to help test the changes to provide the best possible experience in 7.3.5! Here are their instructions on how to create a PTR account and leave feedback.

Now that players have spent some time in Trial of Valor, we asked Nobbel87 to explain the lore and story of the zone for Wowhead. If you like these sorts of videos and want to see more on upcoming Legion topics, let us know in the comments!

Legion Artifact Weapons have a vast array of unique styles and tints. While we've been previewing these fairly regularly with our modelviewer updates, Artifact Calculator, and transmog recommendations, we had a bit of exciting news this past Alpha update. Several weapons have additional datamined appearances, implying there may be six available artifact styles.

Will this be a special sixth style players can unlock from difficult content (perhaps Challenge Modes)? Or are they replacement models for some old Artifact designs? The Artifact Appearance system is not yet active on the Alpha so we can't confirm how these styles will be used. Perhaps these models will simply be unused, although we hope the sword that resembles Thunderfury makes an appearance.

Below is a video with high-resolution models of the new Artifact styles. The full post also contains screenshots of the new artifact styles, as well as a preview of the new dungeon Black Rook Hold.

Today we are taking a first look at two new zones in the Legion Alpha - the Shaman Order Hall and questing zone . There have also been minor additions to Dalaran for what looks like the start of a pet tournament.

With 132 brand new cards, Blizzard announced the new Hearthstone expansion today called "The Grand Tournament." This expansion is in the theme of World of Warcraft's Argent Tournament. For a little nostalgia trip, check out the rest of the post!

Warlords of Draenor, World of Warcraft’s latest expansion, launched on November 13th. The Wowhead team has compiled a list of our most useful guides and content to help you build your garrison, pick your gear, play your class, and more! Our database is completely updated for Warlords of Draenor data as well.

Also huge thanks to our beta testers! We gave away five thousand beta keys and have received many wonderful comments and screenshots to help everyone navigate Draenor.

Garrison Buildings

More buildings are now available on the beta to add to your Garrison! Blueprint vendors now sell all of the level 1 buildings and questing in other zones also unlocks special Garrison Outposts.

The buildings you choose for your outpost will determine what blueprints you get for your Garrison, shape your questing experience, and provide different followers. The buildings you choose for your Outpost in each zone will also grant you unique buffs in that particular zone.

If you choose the Segheria Livello 1, you will get a shredder letting you access otherwise blocked areas for treasure. If you choose the Santuario del Gladiatore Livello 1 and complete the full questline, you can free up to five gladiators with distinct buffs to aid you.

The Shredder also automatically appears when there was a clump of tangled vines. The concealed treasures weren't anything interesting yet, but this zone is not fully developed.

7pm EST: Added yet another Zone Preview--this time it's the PvP Zone Ashran, which should be enabled in today's beta build.6 pm EST: Blizzard added a video preview of Gorgrond.5 pm EST: Blizzard also just previewed Gorgrond, another zone in Warlords of Draenor!Today we have a preview from Blizzard on Talador, Gorgrond, and Ashran in Warlords of Draenor, as well as some blue tweets on what to expect in upcoming beta builds and perhaps even holiday revamps!

We've linked to our past in-depth coverage of playable zones and Blizzard's Artcraft and zone preview blogs when applicable. Do keep in mind that several of the higher-level zones had images taken with Far Sight, so they may still be incomplete and subject to change in future beta builds.

You can even preview how your own characters will look by going to http://www.wowhead.com/list and entering in your character's info under "Lookup Battle.Net Profile."

UI Improvements

There's a "What's New" Screen highlighting new things in World of Warcraft--on the alpha, it was new character models, collections, and the group finder. There is also a new "Raid Graphics" setting under System, which allows you to specify texture resolution and ground clutter specifically for raids.
